Girls. as They Are.

Girls are of few days and full Of mis-
chief, and whatsoever is deceived there
by is not wise.
When the fair young girl cheweth
her gum with greater haste and stamp
eth her pretty foot, do thou look out.
She cometh forth in the evening i'll
low neck and short sleeves; but Il
morning she lieth i'll bed while her
mother hustleth.
When the sleigh bell tinkleth she
standeth at the window and yearneth
for beau, sand when he cometh she
doeth up his purse. lie wrappeth the
buffalo robe about her and huggeth her
much and stayeth out beyond his time,
and the livery man addeth four good
dollars to his bill.
In the evening he hieth himself away
to her fathers mansion. He goeth in
and siteth by the fire and ere he leaveth
he popeth the question and she jump
eth at the chance. When the cock
croweth he took his departure, and,
when he remembereth the smallness of
his salary, he kicketh himself and
cOmpareth himself to an ass, yea, veri-
ly.-Ercbdnge.

The Prodigal,s Return.

Since the late election the New York
Sun is trying to crawl under the Demo-
cratic tent and once more get in out of
the cold. After doing all in its power
to prevent Cleveland's election and
then stabbing his administration all the
time, it now comedies that the election
is Cleveland victory and that the
President should have the full credit for
the success. The World which has al
so INDUCED in much captious and I'M
reasonable criticism of the party acts
of the President, now says: 1.-The re-
suit of the election in this state set
ties three points as thoroughly as any
political event can be settled in adj
vance: President Cleveland will be
re-nOminated by his party. Mr. Blaine
will not be re-nominated by the Re
publicans. Mr.. George wills not con-
troll the election next year. New York
is the pivotal state. Mr.. Cleyeland's
friends have had complete triumph.
They are entitled to the fruits of the
victory. Grover Cleveland is indeed a
lucky man; and James G. Blaine may
be said to be dead cock in the pit
1t seems that the German Republican
vote very largely came over to the
Democratic side, and with the increas-
ed prohibition vote much more than
made up the disaffection caused by the
labor movements. "-WyandOtt Herald

"A horse owned by a farmer near
Lewistown. Me-. is often used to run a
machine for cutting fodder. Of late its
owner has been much annoyed at the
frequent stopping of the horsepower.
especially when the horse was left
alone. The other day the farmer played
the spy. and saw the horse. as soon as
the animal thought he was alone, reach
over the side of the machine. grab the
brake with his teeth. pull it over, stop
the machine, and then wait calmly for
some one to take off the brake and start
him again. 1t is said the old fellow
actually looked sad when the farmer

A New Coon in Town.

Last summer pet coon belonging
to some one on Main street used to be
seen playing in front of the stores
near the old ''Rome" hall. Suddenly
he disappeared, and people wondered
what had become Of his coonship.
The other day Harry Kline hung a
turkey back of the building and
then, for the first time since the sum,
mer months, he showed himself, COB
bled the turkey and disappeared with
it under the frame building occupied
by Bert Pennington. There is small
hole through the floor, and the boys
have great sport in placing dainties
on the floor near the hole and watch
the cunning paws of the coon reach
for them.

A Crooked LaMyer.

CINCINNATI, Dec. al. L. Eichelberger,
a young attorney, is missing from his home
since last Thanksgiving day, with several
crooked transactions developed. Among
them is that of obtaininga gold watch from
his affianced bride and diamond ring from
a jeweler of his acquaintance on false pre-
lenses. Besides these, it appears that the
Endorsement on u note given by Eichelber-
ger is forgery. Eichelberger was to have
been married on Thanksgiving, but post
poned the ceremony until Christmas. His
friends fear he has taken his life
